Douluo's self has a soul beast clone

After politely seeing off the old man, the three, having obtained the information they sought, fell into contemplation. Although they had guessed that there must have been significant changes on the continent in recent years, they hadn't expected the situation to have deteriorated to such an extent.

Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall had forcefully chosen to establish a nation, which, although somewhat hasty, gave the Spirit Hall a real army and vast territory.

This book is first published on 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.

Moreover, for many years, the Spirit Hall had been regarded as a sacred place in the eyes of soul masters. Very few soul masters would truly refuse the Spirit Hall's recruitment and remain in the two great empires. Most importantly, the Spirit Empire had many powerful individuals. Even if they secretly assassinated high-ranking officials of the two great empires, it would be difficult for the two empires to withstand.

Therefore, after learning all of this, Li Chang'an and the others decided not to rest. They would immediately return to Heaven Dou City at full speed to see the situation there, lest something they didn't want to see really happened.

The three no longer stinted on the consumption of their soul power, but instead used their flying abilities to the fullest. With their formidable soul power cultivation, their full-speed flight was astonishingly fast. In just about a day and a half, Heaven Dou City was already faintly visible.

Just as the three were about to land in Heaven Dou City, they suddenly noticed a streak of emerald green light flying from afar. The familiar aura made Dugu Yan exclaim excitedly, "It's Grandpa!" At the same time, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, as the most powerful soul master in the empire on the surface, if the Spirit Hall were to implement a decapitation strategy, then they would first have to get past her grandfather.

So, after learning about the situation in the Heaven Dou Empire today, Dugu Yan was really worried about her grandfather.

Fortunately, things were not as bad as she thought. Dugu Bo was obviously in very good condition, and even came to meet them immediately after sensing their aura from afar.

The two sides met in the air, and the four floated in the air.

"Grandpa."

Dugu Yan excitedly flew forward and threw herself into her grandfather's arms. She had missed this only relative of hers so much after not seeing him for many years.

"Good, good. It's good that you're back, good that you're back."

Dugu Bo was also filled with excitement. After all, he only had this one granddaughter left. If he hadn't been able to receive letters from them from time to time, knowing that they were all well, he probably would have gone to Sea God Island at all costs.

The grandparents hugged for a while before separating. Dugu Bo looked at his granddaughter, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and said with a kind sigh, "Yan'er, you've really grown up."

He could feel that his granddaughter's strength was now no less than his own.

And this was only in a short span of 8 years!

At this time, Dugu Bo felt that not disturbing them for the past 8 years was indeed the right thing to do. To be able to obtain such benefits, let alone 8 years, even ten or twenty years, in his opinion, was very worthwhile.

After all, how old was Dugu Yan this year? She had already reached a realm that ordinary soul masters could not reach in their entire lives. It was hard to imagine how high her future achievements would be.

The better his granddaughter was, the happier he, as a grandfather, would naturally be.

Li Chang'an, who was beside them, watched the reunion of the grandparents with a smile, while Xue Ke thought of her father... and envied Sister Yan for having such pure affection.

Even if Emperor Xue Ye showed her the greatest love, he was, after all, a member of the royal family, and the affection was still somewhat weak. How much was real and how much was fake was really hard to say.

...

"What! Emperor Xue Ye is dying?!"

At this time, the four had arrived at the Dugu Mansion in Heaven Dou City. As a result, not long after they sat down, Dugu Bo said a shocking piece of news.

For a time, Dugu Yan exclaimed, Li Chang'an's expression was solemn, and Xue Ke even stood up excitedly.

Even though she was in the royal family, so the concentration of affection for this father was not very high, but no matter what, Emperor Xue Ye was her father after all. There was still some emotion in it.

Now that she heard that her father was about to die, Xue Ke was naturally unable to calm down. After all, before they went to Sea God Island, Emperor Xue Ye's body was still considered healthy, and it was estimated that he could live for another twenty or thirty years without any problems. How could it have developed to the point of dying after only eight years? What was going on?

Dugu Yan and Xue Ke were puzzled, but only Li Chang'an, who knew the plot, understood what was going on. Qian Renxue was about to officially seize power.

Due to his intervention, the time for Qian Renxue to launch the coup was much later than in the original book. Relatively speaking, her preparation and control over the Heaven Dou Empire were also more adequate!

Now that the Spirit Empire had been established, the time had come. Qian Renxue was preparing to seize power, and then cooperate with the Spirit Empire to make a big move?

As the current emperor of one of the two great empires, if Emperor Xue Ye died, then the entire continental situation would undergo earth-shattering changes.

The alliance that the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire had painstakingly formed in secret would probably also change. And the most beneficial would undoubtedly be the Spirit Empire.

At this critical moment, if the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire changed, the empire's internal energy would undoubtedly be focused more on the struggle for imperial power. The actions that had just begun against the Spirit Hall would immediately stagnate.

Of course, this was just the superficial statement, to make others think so. In fact, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire had long been replaced. Therefore, Qian Renxue, who inherited the throne, would definitely not allow the two great empires to really unite to deal with the Spirit Empire. She would definitely make trouble, and even deliberately hinder the union of the two countries.

And the identity of the emperor was undoubtedly the most suitable person to do this.

...

"Grandpa, what's going on? What exactly happened to Emperor Xue Ye?" Li Chang'an asked. He wanted to confirm whether the situation was the same as he thought.

"Emperor Xue Ye was poisoned with a chronic poison."

Dugu Bo said in a deep voice, "This poison is very tricky, and it is extremely difficult to detect before it breaks out. At most, it will cause the body to have some minor problems from time to time. But about a month ago, the accumulated toxins finally broke out! Emperor Xue Ye's body also collapsed all of a sudden."

"By the time I was invited to diagnose him, it was already too late. Even if I used my powerful cultivation to remove the toxins, the damage to the body caused by the poison could not be repaired. Now I am afraid that only three days of life are left." He sighed.

"Have you looked for healing soul masters to treat him?" Li Chang'an asked.

"I've looked for them, but it's useless. Even the Nine Heart Begonia can't repair his riddled body that has been eroded by toxins. That has already damaged the foundation. No matter how powerful the healing soul master is, it's useless." Dugu Bo shook his head.

"That's not necessarily true."

Li Chang'an held a negative attitude, then turned to look at Xue Ke and said, "Enter the palace now! With the ultimate life attribute of your Emerald Swan martial soul, as long as the person is not dead, there may still be a glimmer of hope."

"Yes."

Xue Ke nodded heavily, feeling that her many years of hard work were for this moment.
